2013-01-22ARM: PRIMA2: rstc: enable the support for MarcoBarry Song

2013-01-22ARM: PRIMA2: mv timer to timer-prima2 as we will add timer-marcoBarry Song
Marco timer has different timer IP with prima2, so rename the current timer to timer-prima2 so that we can add timer-marco. at the same time, if we don't find prima2 timer node in dt, don't panic the system as we will make prima2 and marco use same kernel image.

Commit 6bb27d7 "ARM: delete struct sys_timer" removed struct sys_timer, but didn't update mach-sunxi/sunxi.c for this change, even though the sunxi timer implementation itself was updated. This caused a build break: arch/arm/mach-sunxi/sunxi.c:94:2: error: unknown field 'timer' specified in initializer arch/arm/mach-sunxi/sunxi.c:94:12: error: 'sunxi_timer' undeclared here (not in a function) Signed-off-by: Stephen Warren <swarren@nvidia.com> Signed-off-by: Olof Johansson <olof@lixom.net>
2013-01-02clocksource: add common of_clksrc_init() functionStephen Warren
It is desirable to move all clocksource drivers to drivers/clocksource, yet each requires its own initialization function. We'd rather not pollute <linux/> with a header for each function. Instead, create a single of_clksrc_init() function which will determine which clocksource driver to initialize based on device tree. Based on a similar patch for drivers/irqchip by Thomas Petazzoni. Signed-off-by: Stephen Warren <swarren@nvidia.com>
2012-12-24ARM: delete struct sys_timerStephen Warren
Now that the only field in struct sys_timer is .init, delete the struct, and replace the machine descriptor .timer field with the initialization function itself. This will enable moving timer drivers into drivers/clocksource without having to place a public prototype of each struct sys_timer object into include/linux; the intent is to create a single of_clocksource_init() function that determines which timer driver to initialize by scanning the device dtree, much like the proposed irqchip_init() at: http://www.spinics.net/lists/arm-kernel/msg203686.html Includes mach-omap2 fixes from Igor Grinberg.

2012-12-24ARM: remove struct sys_timer suspend and resume fieldsStephen Warren
These fields duplicate e.g. struct clock_event_device's suspend and resume fields, so remove them now that nothing is using them. The aim is to remove all fields from struct sys_timer except .init, then replace the ARM machine descriptor's .timer field with a .init_time function instead, and delete struct sys_timer.

2012-12-24time: convert arch_gettimeoffset to a pointerStephen Warren
Currently, whenever CONFIG_ARCH_USES_GETTIMEOFFSET is enabled, each arch core provides a single implementation of arch_gettimeoffset(). In many cases, different sub-architectures, different machines, or different timer providers exist, and so the arch ends up implementing arch_gettimeoffset() as a call-through-pointer anyway. Examples are ARM, Cris, M68K, and it's arguable that the remaining architectures, M32R and Blackfin, should be doing this anyway. Modify arch_gettimeoffset so that it itself is a function pointer, which the arch initializes. This will allow later changes to move the initialization of this function into individual machine support or timer drivers. This is particularly useful for code in drivers/clocksource which should rely on an arch-independant mechanism to register their implementation of arch_gettimeoffset(). This patch also converts the Cris architecture to set arch_gettimeoffset directly to the final implementation in time_init(), because Cris already had separate time_init() functions per sub-architecture. M68K and ARM are converted to set arch_gettimeoffset to the final implementation in later patches, because they already have function pointers in place for this purpose.

Introduce a field per_bio_data_size in struct dm_target. Targets can set this field in the constructor. If a target sets this field to a non-zero value, "per_bio_data_size" bytes of auxiliary data are allocated for each bio submitted to the target. These data can be used for any purpose by the target and help us improve performance by removing some per-target mempools. Per-bio data is accessed with dm_per_bio_data. The argument data_size must be the same as the value per_bio_data_size in dm_target. If the target has a pointer to per_bio_data, it can get a pointer to the bio with dm_bio_from_per_bio_data() function (data_size must be the same as the value passed to dm_per_bio_data).

Add WRITE SAME support to dm-io and make it accessible to dm_kcopyd_zero(). dm_kcopyd_zero() provides an asynchronous interface whereas the blkdev_issue_write_same() interface is synchronous. WRITE SAME is a SCSI command that can be leveraged for more efficient zeroing of a specified logical extent of a device which supports it. Only a single zeroed logical block is transfered to the target for each WRITE SAME and the target then writes that same block across the specified extent. The dm thin target uses this.

2012-12-21dm ioctl: use kmalloc if possibleMikulas Patocka
If the parameter buffer is small enough, try to allocate it with kmalloc() rather than vmalloc(). vmalloc is noticeably slower than kmalloc because it has to manipulate page tables. In my tests, on PA-RISC this patch speeds up activation 13 times. On Opteron this patch speeds up activation by 5%. This patch introduces a new function free_params() to free the parameters and this uses new flags that record whether or not vmalloc() was used and whether or not the input buffer must be wiped after use.
